State Health Plan; provide coverage for prosthetic teeth and dental implants for children with oligodontia.
SB 2399 amends Mississippi's State Health Plan to require coverage for prosthetic teeth and permanent dental implants specifically for children diagnosed with oligodontia (a condition causing missing multiple teeth). This change directly affects children enrolled in the plan who have this medical condition, ensuring they receive necessary dental care previously excluded from coverage. The bill adds this provision as a new exception to the plan's standard dental coverage limitations under Section 25-15-7. However, the bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
